The beauty of meditation is that you can practice it pretty much anywhere, but there's something especially soul-cleansing about pairing mindfulness with world-class art. MoMA encourages visitors to abstain from technology during Quiet Mornings, and the confluence of distraction-free art appreciation and early morning zen is a great mid-week refresher. It's certainly an antidote to busy city life we can't wait to practice again next month.
